KRT BUILDING CONSULTANTS - Key Persons


Darrel Goosen

Job Titles:
  • Principal, Matakana School / Matakana School
Matakana School recently completed its latest 10 Year Property Plan. On this occasion the Board made use of Keith Tickner to manage the process. In the past, this has usually been a frustrating and complicated task. Keith made the process so much simpler for us this time. His keen attention to detail, quick communication and overall grasp of our needs was impressive. Keith kept everyone - Property Manager, Principal, School Board and Ministry of Education - very well informed and ensured that deadlines were met and supporting documentation submitted on time. It is not often that I am able to express complete satisfaction in professional services delivered by consultants but in this case, I am pleased to be able to do so. I would not hesitate in recommending Keith Tickner to any organisation wanting to make use of his specialist professional services.

During the period of six years, while I was body corporate chairman of a large apartment leaky building in Central Auckland, I found Keith Rankine working as a consulting engineer, and laterally as Project Manager, extremely helpful to the owners committee. He kept us informed through consistent monthly reporting and was of exceptional assistance in assisting with negotiating a satisfactory mediation. I can confidently recommend Keith Rankine to others.

Noelle Fletcher

Job Titles:
  • Principal, Te Atatu Intermediate
We used Keith Tickner to formulate our new 10 year property plan. It is a huge task and one that needs close attention to detail, many meticulous and complex calculations and endless paperwork. We found Keith was such a worker, he was patient in the constant demands for changes and need for more information and he was really wonderful to work with.
